Geroge McKelvey Remembered

George McKelvey, retired principal of James Robinson P.S., passed away peacefully on April 1st in his 85th year. He spent the entirety his life serving the Markham community through many leadership positions through his work and active volunteerism. 

George was actively involved most recently with his church, the Lions Club and Markham Horticultural Society. George will always be remembered for being a friend to many with a genuine interest in others and his community. He was a former Ward 4 Councilor for the Town of Markham (1994 – 2006), principal of James Robinson PS and a regional treasurer for the Retired Teachers of Ontario.

He was loved by many and will be missed by all who knew him. JRPS will fly our flag half-mast to observe his life and passing.
